I’m so irritated by Facebook. It’s so frustrating. We constantly have to remind our Facebook followers that they need to check their settings, because Facebook has been unliking our page FOR them. Every day, we see messages from people who tell us they’re no longer seeing our posts.
Come here directly. Don’t let Facebook pick and choose which posts you get to see. They’re ALL HERE. Suck it, FB.
I’ve heard critics say that conservatives are hypocrites for complaining about Facebook. After all, aren’t we allllllllllll for businesses making their own decisions? While that’s true, it’s important to note that Zuckerberg constantly presents Facebook as a platform for all ideas. Yet Facebook consistently targets conservatives and conservative messages and conservative pages. The social media giant does this and pretends it doesn’t.
That’s why we have a problem. Go ahead and be biased tools, but at least ADMIT you’re biased tools.
Another reason we’re irritated by Facebook? They’re very choosy. They’ll shut down a conservative page in 3 seconds flat, but pages titled “Kill Trump, Hang Him, Hunt Him”?
Nah.
Believe it or not, that page exists, and Facebook decided it doesn’t violate any community standards. Comedian Owen Benjamin posted this screenshot. (He was banned from Facebook earlier this month for insulting David Hogg.)
A page devoted to killing POTUS? Totally fine. Nothing to see here. Move along, everyone.
Update: Facebook reverses course!
After initially telling comedian Owen Benjamin that a Facebook group named “Kill Trump, Hang Him, Hunt Him” did not violate their community standards, the social media giant took a second look and found that it did violate their standards and subsequently removed it. “This group was removed over the weekend for violating our policies.”
